| Hate-group watchdog links supremacist site to murders

| Nearly 100 murders around the world in the last five years, including those of Sikh worshippers in the US in 2012, can be traced back to users of the biggest white supremacist forum on the Internet, a hate-group watchdog has said.
The majority of those killings were committed by Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian extremist best known for the massacre of 69 people, most of them teenagers, at a summer camp outside Oslo in 2011.
But, in common with other killers, he frequented Stormfront.org, which the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) branded a "racist forum" in a study that comes on the heels of Sunday's triple murder at two Jewish sites in Kansas.
Stormfront's users have included Wade Michael Page, who killed six people and then himself at a Sikh gurudwara in Wisconsin in 2012, and Buford O'Neil Furrow, who shot and wounded five people at a Jewish day care center in Los Angeles in 1999 before killing a Filipino-American postal worker.
"Stormfront is really a worldwide enterprise," said Heidi Beirich, who authored the report for the Alabama-based non-profit organization that monitors homegrown extremist groups in the United States.
